This happens a lot and the fact there is a 'detained in Dubai' organization speaks volumes...

Was the girl named Ana?

Only a year? I’m thinking he got off light.....considering it’s Dubai I’m surprised they didn’t give that kid a lop-ectomy.

How is it that these two had the money to travel to and lodge in Dubai, but didn’t know any better than to not be caught “en flagrante” there? The girl’s mother seems to have thrown caution out the window, tattling on her daughters activities. Both could have gotten locked up for quite a while. It reads like the girl was not punished.
You don’t go to Dubai for your teenage rendezvous. Even Izmir, Turkey may be a better choice.

The girl was too old.

If she was 9, it would have been OK

But are they really any worse than the UK where you get JAILED if you complain too much about you daughter getting raped?

[Zhang Fei]

Brits are probably scratching their heads, since the UK age of consent is 16, same as in AL and MS.

That TV show Airports or whatever I think Dubai security were looking for Witchcraft ,LOL

[paudio]

More likely the girl’s mum (they are Britts) didn’t like him, and made sure the romance didn’t go far.

I am stunned he got out so soon. Dubai, like most of the Arab world, is very racist against Blacks. An American Black woman was detained for "assault" for nearly 2 years for merely touching a (female Arab) customs officer in Dubai to get her attention. It appears the boy's family is wealthy, so a payoff was likely made.

So, he had sex with a “girl released?” From what was she released? Or, the limeys should learn to write.

“The girl’s mother reported Fakana”

Wonder what she’s done to her daughter.
